I know a few people here play RuneScape (me too sometimes) so thought I would post this.

What do you guys think?

Just going to throw it out there... I prefer EOC to 07scape.

Looking forward to it.

Fair enough, everyone is entitled to their gameplay preference.

How did you find the transition from non-EOC to EOC?

I paid £3 a month for 7 years to see updates and content added to the game. Not to just stop back in 07 scape.

For me, ill play RS3 due to curiosity but wont devote real time to it like i did previously. The game overall has lost its appeal to me. The reason people are loving 07 scape at the moment is the fresh start. Everyone back to level 3. So economy is refreshed. Skilling matters. and being the first one there gives you advantage.

Exactly, skilling matters. It doesn't in the current game which is why everyone was so excited for the fresh start, training skills was actually worthwhile for something other than a cape.

If they reset everyone for RS3... I'd consider it.

Instead of 07 scape. They should have announced RS3 and made it a fresh begining. Its the thrill of the race/journey people miss. Everyone is level 138 with a 5b bank in EOC now with a comp cape. The problem is its inflated at the high end.

A reset of some sort is needed or a giant gold sink.

Playing EOC isn't worth it for me at the moment. There is no money to be made at all through skilling. Slayer is a good example of this. A few years ago there was tons of money to be made training it, nowadays the drops you get a worth hardly anything. There is no incentive to train any skills at all for me.
